I bought these in support of our State Police at our state fair and have found that cagers do not tail-gate me anymore.

I do not believe that the police will give me anymore of a break on a speeding ticket, but it is nice to see that cagers just are not sure whether they can drive stupid when they notice the plate frames.
Do you think the LEOs will give you a break if you have these types of plate frames or stickers on your windshield that says you support your local police?

Looks like a case of impersonatin' the officer! Might just get you arrested!
Catch a LEO in a bad mood, you may be goin ta see the judge!

It is quite popular here in NJ for folks to sport the PBA or FOP support stickers in their vehicles. Some LEOs give a break. Others don't.

Usually it's the people running FOP tags here in Memphis that you really have to watch out for. Super aggresive driving while they seem to be paying attention to everything but the road.
On another note I am not certain how the cops in this city drive such nice personal cars.

So .... I suppose my "Iron Butt Rally - 11,000 Miles 11 Days" plate frame isn't doing me any good with the LEOs, huh!
And that's on my white K75 RTP former City of Lawrence, KS police bike. :) :)
One of those Illinois things on the RTP bike would really get me for impersonation.
I did think the array of little round reflectors - red amber white blue red - on the tail was awful cute though.

I had a Harris County Sherif Supporter windshield sticker on my K for years and I know for a fact that it helped more than once. The stickers came with a high price donation, but when you work for the print shop that prints them well.....

I have a frame that says "One Less Harley", but I took it off the bike.

I should post a picture, but the majority of you have already seen an Iron Butt frame.

You know, I haven't looked. It's probably still the frame from Falmouth ME, Street Cycles where I bought it.
Maybe I should get something different. Something cool. Something that says "Me"
does someone make a frame that says "Wash me!"?

i roll with the, "my plate holder was about to snap off, so i ripped it all off and just drilled holes through the plate and attached them to the mud guard" look
it's very minimalist:

Vertical plates get you an instant ticket in TN.
I ran one on my supermoto KTM like that until I got an award for creative plate placement.
They still alow the sportbike kids to place them on their inner fender ahead of the rear wheel???? :banghead

Had to have the "Ride There" plate holder from Aerostitch.

I am sure as there are more and more cameras used for enforcment of traffic laws, the LEOs will be on the lookout for plates that are hidden/blocked from the cameras view.

This isn't mine, but I am often sorely tempted to get one like it:
